Paul Wilson presents at the Atlanta Cutting Edge.Net
Paul Wilson, creator of the popular Wilson OR-Mapper, presented on the Provider Model and custom providers. It was great to see Paul again, and I'm glad I got to see this presentation since I was unable to attend the first time he presented at the 2nd Annual Atlanta Code Camp.

Anyway, Paul gave an excellent presentation on custom providers, how useful they can be, and how easy they can be to create. The basic premise was that while you have the ability to override a million and one different methods, you really only need to override and use a subset. His code is online at his blog. Oh, the other cool thing was that Paul came packing a dozen or so great books AND a super steller give-away!
